AI Data-center Boom Sends Land Prices Soaring

Data centers are already pushing up electricity demand and straining water supplies. Now, their rapid expansion is driving up the price of land, especially in rural communities where developers are competing for farmland and other large parcels with access to the power grid.

Developers backed by some of the world’s largest technology companies can pay multiples of what farmers, home builders, and other buyers can afford. In some markets, land once priced for farming or housing is suddenly worth millions of dollars per acre.

She warned against black plastic in the kitchen as one of the worst offenders because it is typically made from recycled electronics, which contain flame retardants (cancer-causing brominated chemicals) that leach into food, especially hot food.
